Optimizing Dental Hygiene to Maximize Practice Production
About This Event
Dental hygiene is the second largest and only other production center beyond the doctor in dental practices. Yet, the dental hygiene department has been marginalized to a large degree in regard to reaching potential for practice production.
Given the impact dental hygiene can have on practice production, this course will identify those strategies that can be easily implemented into the office to increase hygiene production. Some strategies can be implemented almost immediately, and others require coordination with the doctor and/or the administrative team.
Learning Objectives
- Understand how the traditional role of a dental hygienist can be transformed to increase overall practice efficiency, and production.
- Learn the specific strategies that hygienists can add to their allotted appointment time (without rushing) to increase the number of hygiene services provided.
- Recognize the barriers that keep hygienists from being more productive and efficient and create specific steps to make improvements.
